T'was just a garden in the rain. Close to a little leafy lane. A touch of color 'neath skies of gray. The raindrops kissed the flowerbeds. The blossoms raised their thirsty heads. A perfumed thank you. They seemed to say. Surely here was charm beyond compare to view. Maybe it was just that I was there with you. T'was just a garden in the rain. But then the sun came out again. And sent us happily on our way.

Mummy! Aunties! Granny!

had a cozy evening at Grandma's yesterday...
bought roses for mommy, 3 aunts n granny.Took photos... they look so sweet...
When i was little,i've always wanted to have another female cousin to play with... maternal side that is. But now that i've grown up n all, i cherish the fact that i'm the only granddaughter...
coz i know that it brought me so close to my 3 aunts and grandma... not to mention how much they dote on me, bought me girly stuff.... hand me little treasures of theirs....
a ring from my grandma.. a beautiful musical box that she had when she was a little girl from Aunty Mui, clothes from Aunty Teng and origami from Aunty Siew...
Thank you God for these wonderful women.
They are truly my role models in life.
Their courage, strength, support, their unfailing love , their "being there" as sisters, as mothers, as daughters, as aunts is a continuous source of strenght n hope for me.

Mommy I love U! No one else is as brave. as strong.
For hanging in there. For not giving up.
For loving us amidst the pain.
Thank you for being U.
